Week of September 25th

It was so nice to see and talk with you last week at Pizza Night.  The kids were so happy to show you their work and their classroom.

Today we had a great time learning all about sunflowers with our sunflower exploration.  The students painted and sculpted beautiful sunflowers on paper and using plasticine.  We have budding artists in Room 138! Some of our sk students added words to their pictures by sounded out their desired words.

We were hoping to get outside to observe the trees and collect multi-colored leaves in Griffin's Grove but the hot weather kept us indoors all day.  We will hopefully get outside on Wednesday to collect leaves.

The students enjoyed using mini letters to spell their names as well as simply looking at how the letters are formed.  We will start our letter and word of the week in the very near future but please continue to explore letters and sounds at home during your nightly reading.

Important Dates:
